My 25th Parkrun

This morning I headed to Knowsley which is my local Parkrun - it’s two laps of undulating track, grass and muddy paths.

I met our lovely running club there and there was a primary school who’s set up a stall with goodies for afterwards. I set off with a couple of friends and my legs felt a bit stiff from a 5k run yesterday. After the first lap and lots of hills ahead I ploughed on and went ahead - after a big hill down I did a sprint finish (I’ll be sorry tomorrow 😆).

Lovely orange juice and watermelon slices afterwards. Our club had tea, coffee and lots of snacks on (I chomped a lovely pink and white wafer - haven’t had one for years).

Got my pic taken with our coaches holding my club Parkrun certificate ☺️.

Results in: a pb for this course and my fastest Parkrun time this year.

I feel like I’m getting back to my previous fitness last November before all the nasty bugs hit for weeks on end followed by a calf strain.

Hopefully looking forward to many events starting with the Liverpool Spring 10k next Sunday where I will get my first medal! 🏃🏽‍♀️

thanks - we all start somewhere and beware it gets addictive - you could start with walking as so many do nowadays it’s just lovely.
